Asia trip of 2014

My travelplan from February 28th - April 12th 2014


Show Asia trip 2014 in bigger map

The planning and booking of flights and hostels, B&B´s and hotels are done for my Asia trip in 2014, finished a bit earlier than other years. It was not easy to choose, was thinking about going back to the Philippines, but the typhoon Hayan made me rule Philippines out of my planning since it hit a lot the the places I was thinking about going too. Taiwan, still to cold in March and early April I  think, and the same goes for Korea and Japan. So I ended up with what you see from the map and can read about below.

Will as always, at least after my first visit in SE Asia go back to some of my old places. Singapore, -5th time, Kuala Lumpur - 5th time, Bali - 4th time, but will only stay on Bali for 1 night. My main place on Bali will not be on Bali, but on Nusa Lembongan, a small island 30-45 minutes on a speed boat from Sanur, Bali. Looking forward to that island, never  been there before.   Then I just had to go back to Flores for the excellent diving in Komodo National park again - 3rd time visit.

The new country this year is Sri Lanka, will spend 3 weeks there and are really looking forward to it, I think it might be a bit of taste of India, without going there. Will be travelling around with Intrepid travel for 2 weeks, and the last week will be on my own.

As always, I am going solo travelling again, and hope to meet some nice people on the road, which I most likely will.

No, it is just to wait and try to save some money, since this will be expensive. :)

2 days trip at Lysefjord, a little bit different weather, but most of it was just amazing. Started out from Dørvika in Forsand and went 19 km in the fjord to Flørli, where I slept in a cabin belonging to the Norwegian mountain association. The trip back to Dørvika, took me 3 hours and I was almost all by myself on the fjord, met only 1 boat. Just me and my kayak alone on the fjord. It was 2 good days. :)
